Change accounts on a service

We can change an account on an existing service if necessary.

Before we can change accounts on a service in ISIM, we must create a service instance.

In addition, an account must exist, and the account must have an owner. In other words, orphan accounts cannot be changed.

To change an account on a service instance...

    1. Enter information about the service in the Search information field.
